China sees WHO COVID-19 origin report as an exoneration of lab. WHO disagrees. The report found the lab as an unlikely source of the pandemic but the WHO has called for China to allow an audit of its labs and markets.

Beijing has vehemently denied the Wuhan Institute of Virology was the origin of the COVID-19 pandemic but the report officials often cite as an exoneration of the lab is the same one that the World Health Organization sees as inconclusive.

"We expect China to support this next phase of the scientific process by sharing all relevant data in a spirit of transparency. Equally, we expect all Member States to support the scientific process by refraining from politicizing it," Ghebreyesus said on Friday. Beijing often reminds the world that they allowed a team of international experts to investigate the origin in China for three weeks as part of the WHO-China joint mission. Their research included speaking with some people who work at the Wuhan Institute of Virology but China's ability to be forthcoming has been met with skepticism and some have questioned how much of the truth investigators were privy to.

"Let me say clearly that as far as WHO is concerned all hypotheses remain on the table," Ghebreyesus said in March."We have not yet found the source of the virus, and we must continue to follow the science and leave no stone unturned as we do."
